I don't believe this has been properly resolved. As of this date I am still experiencing this issue with updated Intel hardware as well as current Kernel/modesetting driver and current Xorg.
The default Xorg Intel driver mode is SNA. I have tried also tried UXA and XAA. The issue persists. I also removed the Xorg Intel driver completely to run in native modesetting. Xorg CPU usage still remains > 75-90% in all cases. This could well have to do with java settings and/or badly implemented java apps.
